Anaganda Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 From discord... and please this is not about the fact that they should be posting updates here and not on discord... so let's spare this argument... For me it's just about saying my opinion about this planned update, since we can't type any thing on the discord channel. 1- nipple slider... the slider should be for the areola (circular colored patch of skin) only, actual nipple (pointy bits) should remain the same. 2- as for the piercing... should be an actual 3d model not a texture that looks like it's tattoo'd on the boob. over all if this is how the final product is gonna look like, then better not do it cause at least for me this will look like a down grade in the game's visual quality.

Vampixie Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Seriously!? Is this for fucking real? Devs, you're unable to add actual piercings as an accessory? So you put painted on ones... How pathetic... I know for a FACT it -can- be done... so stop giving us bullshit, half arsed crap, and pull your fucking fingers out your arses!

Angelqueen Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Totally agree... devs need fix this problem! Piercings cannot be painted.... must be 3D model!!!!

YenneferVengerberg Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I am speechless with disgust do you want to put a piercing? do it without making a nipple look like a watermelon When do they finally bring really useful stuff instead of the usual use of the female character for each season?

Aliviax Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 ok here 2 example i just did in 10 mins for both plus render times ^^ plus to set up the avatar So u understand ^^ 1st is the piercing with not being animated or being contstrained etc 2nd example is making the piercing constrain to the boobies so it doesnt clip So as you see its a matter of few tiny minitues for some quality and not lazyness ^^ piercing non animated~1.mp4 piercing animated~1.mp4 Tohi DM, Xizi, Angelqueen and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dayne Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 What you've showed supposedly "piercing" is a pathetic attempt to bring something to the community that has been asked for ages! This is nothing more than 2 minutes of photoshop. Almost seems like you're trying to mock your community with this crap! We want actual piercings (you know a separate 3D model, an actual accessory that you can toggle on and off!) not this crap a nipple texture... seriously is that the best you could come up with?

Xizi Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 If you wander why like/dislike ratio is so good I will tell you why: It's not because 3dxchat's community aside of forum is so distasteful and this lack of any effort is alright for most people. It's because on this little preview it does not look like a texture if you don't expand the picture or don't look super attentive to details on the little pic. I myself pressed a thumbs up button at first, because I could not even think that devs made it as a texture. My thought was "YAY! Nipple piercings finally! So cool!!". I could not even imagine that they did it as a texture lol. My opinion about the devs was higher than this lol. And then I saw this thread. Imagine my disappointment.

☙𝔼𝕩❧ Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 @Lisa It`s great that you work for the new updates and that careful about optimization. But these little things (piercings) should be a good-quality 3d objects. It doesn`t mean 1000 polygons/faces per model, but something more than than just a drawing/texture. Thank you.

Xaufin Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 First, the areola should definitely slide separately from the nipple, yes. Second, the players complaining about rings not being modeled should consider some things. The below image is a torus (ring). It's extremely easy to model. You're right about that. But to achieve geometry that actually looks round, each ring could easily be 150-300 polygons, while the "painted" version is between 0-2. Many small details on models are done with normal mapping, which creates the illusion of depth and shadow without actually adding any additional geometry. This is good because additional polygons can add rendering time, and from most angles you can't tell the difference. This is a square (2triangles/polygons). The holes aren't modeled. Will a pair of 300-poly nipple rings on 30 people in the same shot add 18,000 polys to the scene? Not necessarily. It's common to swap out models based on the camera's distance (known as LOD, level of detail), so from a long distance, the nipple rings might just be reduced to textures/squares or removed altogether. Player avatars are probably close to 100k up close, s Last thing, you're getting a new feature, which requires some amount of coding and art time, including different ring options, nipple textures, etc, in addition to the code necessary to make them work. Maybe they can afford to do more right now, and maybe they can't. But you're complaining over one static preview image that, for all we know, might already be of a 3D ring. For comparison, the jewelry in-game captures light correctly while in motion and it's not modeled, it's just a normal map on a couple of quads. To model this would be an enormous number of polygons. So while a simple ring might be 300, if they released bars with spiders on the ends or a dragon head, you could end up with a 2,000 polygon piece on each nipple. If that is their goal, then for consistency it might make more sense to bake them all into textures with normal maps. It's fine to complain but don't attack the devs or suggest they don't care or aren't delivering enough.

I do suggest they don't care and don't delivering enough. Alivia just made a nipple ring in 10 mins. People hosting the server about which better not to talk here made nipple rings and added it in game. But Gizmo and Lisa can't make nipple rings because it's too much of a work? Or because two piercings in some peoples' nipples are too much of load on PC? Well if a damn piercing is too much of a load for some peeps laptops/PCs they better really consider buying a new one, we are not talking about AAA-game level graphics here, we talking about very basic stuff. We are talking about stuff that is normal for games for last like 10-15 years. What the fuck is this texture of a nipples? Did I return in my early childhood time and play in some early 200s game or it's a fucking 2020? Again. We are not taking about photo-realistic graphics here. Not about rays or DLSS or some other super new shit. We are talking about having a damn ring as a 3d object. Is this so difficult?

You think "lower graphics" is something the player does which takes no extra work on the developer's side? The game engine still has to swap to another model of lower detail which does have to be made. The "option" to lower graphics does not save work. And Alivia made a literal ring, not an actual piercing like what THX posted. And no, a 30-polygon ring or torus (which is not a cylinder in any way) would definitely look shittier than a texture. But the math really isn't important. This is a preview of a work in progress. How many piercing presets and options will there be? We don't know, yet we're complaining. Sure, the devs could definitely release things faster than they are, but for whatever reason, they aren't. You're paying to use existing features. If you get something new, be grateful, cause you're entitled to nothing more than what already exists. If the textured rings are such low quality that your experience is ruined by them, there are a couple of elegant solutions for you, the player: a) don't use them, b) don't zoom in that close. Ta da.

PEITHO Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 If you're familiar with Skyrim mods, or even Fallout mods, then you'll also know that yes, 3d modeling should be the way to go. However, the way that meshes are handled in most games, especially with layered 3d models, is that you get clipping. That is, unless the original plan was to account for 3d meshing to be layered under another 3d mesh. This can be done in various ways such as making the mesh transparent when clothing is applied. A lot of clipping is fixed this way, as it essentially removes any mesh that is being covered by the layer of mesh on top of it. Now take that frame of mind and think about all the separate creators that have made clothing for 3dx. Those clothing models do not account for physical nipple piercings, let alone any variants that might also be available. Now you have put on your favorite nipple piercing and put on your favorite shirt or dress. Now you notice that your piercings are now clipping through the outfit. The issue is something that can be fixed but the creators will have to go and make updates to the outfits they've made and re submit them to the devs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
